The World at Six is the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's national dinner-hour radio newscast, airing Monday to Friday from 6 to 6:30 p.m. local time on CBC Radio One.
On Saturdays and Sundays, the program airs with the title The World This Weekend. In the Maritime Provinces, The World This Weekend airs at 7 p.m. rather than 6, as the final hour of the live Cross Country Checkup occupies the 6 to 7 p.m. time slot on Sundays in the Atlantic Time Zone. In the rest of Canada, however, The World This Weekend airs at 6 p.m. local time.
Formerly simulcast on both CBC Radio One and CBC Radio 2, the program only airs on Radio One as of March 2007.
The program's weekday anchor is Alison Smith, and the weekend edition is currently anchored by Marcia Young.
Other past anchors and reporters associated with the program included Joan Donaldson, Maureen Brosnahan, Lorna Jackson, Barbara Smith, Russ Germain, Alannah Campbell, Bob Oxley, Bernie McNamee and Dave Seglins.
